Military Commitment

The Home Depot recognizes that members of the U.S. military community are highly skilled, motivated and hardworking.

In an effort to support this community, The Home Depot joined forces in 2004 with the U.S. Departments of Defense, Labor and Veterans Affairs to provide rewarding and challenging career opportunities in our stores and distribution centers across the nation for current and former members of America's military.

This effort is intended to support our nation’s military job seekers, including:

Veterans, including those with service-connected disabilities

Separating active duty service members

National Guard members

Reservists

Military spouses

We want you!

At The Home Depot we don’t just talk about supporting our military.

Just ask the more than 60,000 veterans we have hired since 2004. We offer a work environment that values the skills learned through military service, while providing the flexibility needed by those who serve in the National Guard, reserves or who are military spouses.

Our efforts have been recognized by G.I. Jobs magazine, where we have made the list of "Top 25 Military-Friendly® Employers" for seven consecutive years, including No. 1 in 2004.

Safe Housing for Veterans

Since 2011, The Home Depot Foundation has invested more than $82 million to provide safe housing to veterans, and along with the help of Team Depot volunteers, has transformed more than 15,000 homes for veterans.

The Air Force Core Values are: Integrity First, Service Before Self, and Excellence in All We Do. Thanks to The Home Depot, I have been able keep my commitment to these core values, as they are directly in line with the values that The Home Depot supports.

Bethany G - Manager, Field Operations and Military Ambassador

The military gave me a sense of pride and instilled discipline. It taught me how to be more responsible and collaborate with other individuals to work as a team. It taught me how to be a better mentor, leader and how to develop people.

Saluting Military Spouses

Adaptable, talented, highly motivated, creative and reliable – these are just a few of the qualities associated with military spouses. We want to help military spouses reach their full potential and realize their career goals by making available meaningful and rewarding employment opportunities.

Our work with military spouses led to The Home Depot being named one of Military Spouse magazine’s “Top 50 Military-Friendly® Employers" in 2013, 2014 and 2015.

At The Home Depot, our associates have a strong voice within the organization, too. One of our associate-run resource groups — Military Appreciation Group also known as MAG — is dedicated strictly to supporting active military associates, deployed reservists and their families. One of the biggest issues veterans face when returning home is making that successful transition back to the civilian world. MAG helps with that, and develops programs to ease.
